		I stopped on my way to church at a fast food restaurant, where I placed an order.
		The cashier called me a sir, but then retracted it.
		I don&apos;t know whether they noticed my purse, my nail polish, or both, but asked about my pronouns.
		Nice.
		It&apos;d be great if people always didn&apos;t assume, no matter how masculine or feminine a person looks.
		However, this look is at least getting people to at least try to stop assuming about me.
		That&apos;s awesome.

		I guess the main point of today&apos;s sermon was that Yahweh helps those that help themselves.
		But that, of course, isn&apos;t Yahweh helping you.
		That&apos;s <strong>*you*</strong> helping you.
		It&apos;s another one of those situations in which you convince yourself that your deity is looking out for you, yet it&apos;s actually something in the real world that explains what&apos;s going on.
	</p>
	<p>
		The section of the Book of Mormon I read today praises Yahweh for bringing the soul of believers to paradise and plunging everyone else into eternal flames, brimstone, and endless torment.
		Seriously?
		We&apos;re expected to praise a god that would subject <strong>*anyone*</strong> to endless torment?
		I mean, forget the part where rational yet good people, who just don&apos;t believe, get endlessly tortured.
		I wouldn&apos;t wish endless torture even on the most hardened of criminals.
		No good, righteous, loving, or merciful entity would.

		My discussion post for the day:

	<blockquote>

			I&apos;m not sure what you mean that Apache doesn&apos;t create websites, but instead routes Web traffic to other applications.
			I guess Apache doesn&apos;t build Web pages, but it does serve pages from your file system without the need to route the traffic to other applications on your system.
			Apache is the only software you need, besides your operating system, to serve a website from your machine.
			That said, Apache can also interface with other applications, such as the $a[PHP] interpreter, to build dynamic pages, and there&apos;s also limited support for dynamic pages within Apache itself (via <code>.shtml</code> files).
		</p>
		<p>
			You say Apache servers need to be updated frequently to comply with &quot;their&quot; policy.
			To comply with <strong>*whose*</strong> policy?
			The Apache Foundation themselves has no such policy.
			The Apache Web Server is released under the Apache License, which places no such requirement on users.
			This license requires you leave any attribution to the Apache foundation intact if you modify it, as well as any disclaimers, but doesn&apos;t require you to use the software in any particular way and doesn&apos;t forbid the use of outdated versions.
			In fact, some $a[BSD] distributions still use a highly-outdated version of Apache from the Apache 1.* line.
			(Currently, Apache is already at version 2.4.38.)
		</p>
		<p>
			You make a good point that care should be taken when modifying Apache.
			Apache is, by design, Internet-facing software.
			You can never trust the masses on the Internet, so you have to keep any Internet-facing software secure.
			Otherwise, you&apos;re just inviting trouble.
